The system is based a modified version of traditional Japanese Jujutsu called “Jiu-do” which is based on the idea of soft overcoming the hard. In other words, smaller, weaker person using leverage and proper technique to defend themselves against a bigger, stronger assailant. BJJ can be trained for self defense, sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition. Sparring and live drilling play a major role in training, and a premium is placed on performance, especially in competition.
